I don't know what everybody's bitching about, you did a fantastic job, regardless of whether or not it sounds exactly like the song or not. The fact that you put your personal touches on it make it that much better, imo. Could use a high quality recording, though. :)
Have you heard come on my selector? You may notice that he actually plays bass on that song. All I'm doing is playing around with his bassline. I can't claim to cover the drum programming with a guitar. Noone can. I'm not trying to replicate the song. That would be pointless.
If your not claiming to cover or replicate the song, then why have you called it Come on my Selector Squarepusher Cover.
Im not saying its bad, it sounds all right. Its just not, come on my selector, and yes i have heard it, about a million times as it is the song to my life.
You and I have clearly different definitions of the word cover. What would the point be in me attempting to reproduce the song exactly? If thats what you want, just listen to the original song. i AM claiming to cover it. NOT replicate it. A cover in my sense is someone else's take on a song. This is my take on Come On My Selector in a very different style than that of Squarepusher.
Your right, I do. My belief is that music serves the purpose of expression. That can often include one's own take on the work of another. That is what I have done. I'm sorry you don't like it. Care to elaborate what in particular you have a problem with? Or is your belief simply that if you don't like a piece, nobody does?
you can come on my selector any day. cool cover.

No, sorry man. It's pretty simple; just play around on E and G octaves.

@gazziboy69 Squarepusher's newest album was fucking amazing. Just like everything else he has made in the past.

Oh, a re-arrangement.

? A cover doesn't have to be the same as the original song. It can be a re-arrangement. The two are far from mutually exclusive.

You do justice to a great guitar. I would work on those vibratos a little more though.
